See link for model of CornucoPat in the CornucoPatioChair.
This would be a patio chair, or any number of other
structures,
built out of a single piece of metal in the shape of a
cornucopia -- so a coil that gradually increases in twistyness
until it is straight and then twistyness comes out
of the
straightness again, does that make any sense? Let me see if
I
can find a link.

3D cornucopia

something very croissanty about a cornucopia. |

[Link] I found a rather cool-looking one-piece spiral cone chair that appears much like your description, although I'm sure you could argue that it is not a mathematically perfect cornucopia. It is certainly much better looking than your first link, and not likely to pinch when sat upon. |

wow that spiral chair is cool, but the anaconda chair is
exactly what i was thinking of -- except with the two ends
connected. |
